WNBA rookie Nika Muhl is drawing attention with the pregame outfit she wore ahead of her debut for the Seattle Storm on Wednesday night.
Muhl, the 14th overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, had missed Seattle’s first four games due to a visa issue.
Nika Mühl missed her first four WNBA games waiting for her work visa approval. The Croatian rookie will finally make her debut for the Seattle Storm tonight, and she arrived wearing her approved visa on her shirt.

During her absence, the Storm went 1-3.
The former UConn star resolved her visa issues just in time for Wednesday night’s game, which featured the Storm’s home matchup against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever.
Muhl previously showcased strong defensive skills against Clark when Iowa and UConn faced off in the NCAA tournament earlier this year.
Muhl expressed her excitement about playing again and caught everyone’s eye with her pregame attire: a custom t-shirt displaying a photo of her approved visa.
It’s a memorable and humorous way to mark her return.
Muhl and the Seattle Storm currently are locked in a tight battle with Clark and the Fever late in the fourth quarter.
Clark currently has 20 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists while Muhl only played three minutes off the bench.
